Escape the crowds and discover the hidden treasures of West Iceland on an unforgettable journey to Hvalfjordur and Hvammsvik Hot Springs. This off-the-beaten-track excursion promises a perfect blend of natural beauty, folklore, and rejuvenating relaxation.
Your adventure begins with a scenic drive out of Reykjavik, where you'll be greeted by the majestic Mount Esja, the guardian of the city. Pause to take in the views before continuing to our first stop, Þórufoss waterfall, famous for its appearance in the Game of Thrones TV series. Here, you'll have the opportunity to capture some memorable photos of this iconic waterfall.
Next, venture into the historic and remote Hvalfjordur settlement and to the Hvammsvik Geothermal Baths. Nestled by the ocean, these natural hot springs offer a rejuvenating experience like no other. With access to eight hot springs ranging from ocean temperatures to 42°C, this is a great opportunity to relax and unwind in the healing waters. For the adventurous, take a dip in the ocean or enjoy the steam baths and outdoor showers to warm up after your soak.
Savor a bowl of delicious lamb soup made with local ingredients (a vegan option is also available), sourdough bread and butter with sea salt, all made on site.
